Portrait of a Young Woman in Teal
Embroidery – cotton and beads
This piece was created in honor of women living during the 19th century, whose embroidery skills were taken for granted and rarely acknowledged as art. It is fitting that they are represented in a medium that was so familiar to them.
Artist Statement
Veronica Bagnole uses texture and color to create detailed needlework that engages the imagination. Inspired by history and storytelling, her pieces are meticulously hand-stitched onto the canvas one thread at a time.
